The first Christmas

I was afraid that it would feel like “The first Christmas Away from Home”.

 It was good to have to change some of the old traditions. Decorating was completely different. No room for a large Christmas tree and we now had a real fire place for hanging up the stockings. Sleeping arrangements were more difficult, but with a thought and consideration all went well.

I even managed to cope with cooking a Christmas meal in a smaller oven – for more people!

 That first Christmas taught me that change can be a very good challenge indeed.
